The Unit Request Item frame allows you to view and select additional unit items to be included on unit requests These unit items are created and maintained on the Item Master Definition frame. For example, you want to track the color of the vehicle or an engine serial number.
Items that have been marked as Mandatory on the Item Master Definition frame automatically display in the Item Information i-frame after you enter a Unit Request number and press tab. To display all unit items, select the Show All Items checkbox.
To add a new item, you can double-click in the first blank Item field of the i-frame or select the Find button at the top of the frame to display the List of Values. If you know the item you want to add you can also manually enter it into the field.
The Type field to the right of the Item name displays the format of the data (for example, Character) that is entered in the Value field. If the Item is mandatory, the Mandatory Item checkbox is selected. This is a read-only field. To make changes to which items are mandatory see the Item Master Definition frame.
Another read-only checkbox that is carried over from the Item Master Definition frame is the Validate Value checkbox. If the checkbox is selected, you must enter valid data in the Value field. To view the list of valid values for each item, double-click in the Value field next to that item or select the Find button at the top of the frame.
If an item does not have the Validated Value checkbox selected, you can add it to the unit request by manually entering data or without entering any data in the Value field.
Note: Unit items cannot be added to a request that has already been approved.
